Well… On Sunday I felt sudden urge to try other distros. So I tried to install Fedora, I actually I was able to do that although I am still not quite sure how it happened because the installation process did freeze. But somehow when I had basically given up, took the cd out and was going to boot from my Crunchbang usb stick, instead my computer booted to Fedora. o_O Eventually I ended up in Linux Mint though – XFCE rc edition to be precise. I feel bit odd about this because in the end my desktop looks exactly same ...

My X crashes pretty much daily (which is obviously starting to piss me off). Last time it crashed just couple minutes ago. And this is not the error message completely (but I could imagine that this is the problem):

WARNING: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist line 4: ignoring bad line starting with ‘END’

At first I was using Mitter, which is excellent Twitter client and I am still following its development, even though I am not actively using it. Then I was using Gwibber and well it started really well, but ...

So yesterday I finally installed the CrunchBang Statler Alpha 1, which bases now on Debian Squeeze (“testing” version of Debian). I think the change was good (from Ubuntu base to Debian). I won’t go into details why because I don’t think I have enough knowledge about these matters but like I said I think it’s good for this project.
